Welcome to Biology 101. I’m Professor Martin, and this is your laboratory assistant, Peter Smith. This
course meets twice a week for lecture and once a week for laboratory assignments.
The text for this course is Introduction to Biological Sciences, by Abramson. You should get the text
and read the first chapter before the next class. You will also need to get the laboratory manual that
accompanies the text.
I’ve passed out a copy of the course syllabus. This syllabus lists the reading assignments and exam
dates. Note that we will cover one chapter a week for each of the next fifteen weeks in the semester,
and there will be three exams throughout the course.
Grades in this course are based on your exam grades and your grades on the laboratory assignments.
Are there any questions?
Question :
b. Twice a week

5. What will the Professor use to determine the final course grades?

Hemisphere. Most of the world’s approximately 500 active volcanoes are located along the Ring of
Fire, and the eruption that take place there are among the most violent in the world.
Today, we are going to discuss the volcanoes of Hawaii, which are quite different from the volcanoes
in the Ring of Fire. Hawaiian volcanoes along the Ring of Fire and are therefore not caused by the
movement of Earth’s plates against each other. Instead, Hawaii is located in the middle of the Ring of
Fire, above a massive plate rather than where two plates meet. The result is that Hawaiian volcanoes
are much gentler than those in the Ring of Fire: Hawaiian volcanoes have much less gas in them,
which causes less explosive eruption, and the lava in Hawaiian volcanoes is thinner, which results in
mounds that are long and low rather than high and steep because the lava flows farther and builds
mounds gradually with long, low slopes. Mauna Loa, the name of Hawaii’s most famous volcanoes,
actually means “long mountain”.
